Reading logs are a sequential record of usage readings captured against an asset in Gearbelt — values such as engine hours, kilometres, or mileage. Each entry stores a value, unit, and timestamp, building a running history of how an asset is being used over time.
Definition
A reading log is a timestamped record of a measured value captured against an asset at a specific point in time. Reading logs are stored against the asset and accumulate over time to form a usage history.
What reading logs are used for
Reading logs are used to:
Track asset usage over time, such as engine hours after each shift or kilometres travelled per day
Trigger maintenance schedule intervals based on usage thresholds
Provide an audit trail of readings for compliance and reporting
Where to view reading logs
You can view reading logs for an asset from:
Gearbelt Web — go to the asset profile and select the Reading Logs tab
Gearbelt Mobile Web — open the asset and select Reading logs to browse, search, filter by unit, and view individual reading details
